the obama administration has declared war on religious freedom in this country. people need to understand that. this is a decision so totally outrageous and an elite -- radical secular ideology that the hierarchy will oppose it. it has nothing to do with the details. it has to do with whether the government can tell a religious institution you must give up your religious beliefs. that is what obamacare has come to mean. the right of a politician and bureaucrat to tell you you may no longer worship the way you want unless you pay a penalty for doing so. i think the average american will be repulsed by the arrogance and the bigotry of the obama administration. >> have you considered voters are not buying what you're selling? you have been on the ballot in five states. you also talk about the debates but you have had 18 of them and you have been considered to done well. it is not showing up in the polls. >> i am not going to defend the outcome in a state where i was outspent five to one. you understand that the idea of taking a state where the other guy spend five t

the first day of the obama administration, the businesses were closed at. benghazi is not a side issue. it is a very big issue. we all have to share and sacrifice right now. 48% of the people are on food stamps and welfare. i think everybody knows to be on the government dole, you just have to sit back and vote for a democrat. i think to ask for shared sacrifice is a little bit too late. guest: i think he is articulating what a lot of people who have been critics of the obama administration feel which is a problem president obama has to contend with. i think part of why he will look to republicans who he feels he can work with to bring them into the administration is precisely to help them understand these concerns. host: are the concerns spending concerns? she was talking about people who get government assistance. guest: deductions and loopholes are not going to affect you if you are not filing your tax returns. that is part of the mix and part of the debate leading up to the election and something he has to take into account because it reflects why these

there is no great incentive for the obama administration, i don't think, to do anything particularly dramatic on cuba. of course, i think one would expect continued caution really following developments within cuba to see what happens -- unless there is further change and reform that would open up space for more engagement and steps forward. finally on the drug issue, there is a mandate i mentioned at the oas has and there has been former presidents that have called for serious rethinking of u.s. drug policy, and now current presidents have made the statement clear -- most recently at the general assembly meeting in september at the u.n., and now we have interesting results from two states here from washington state and from colorado. in addition to the many states -- i think there are 17 or 18 -- where marijuana can be used for medicinal purposes. in these two states, they can be used for recreational purposes. there we have the pressure from the region joined with some of the pressure and trends in shift in public opinion in the u.s., which i think will contribute an ad to greater
